Live images (regardless of whether it is Fedora or whatever) don't have a choice of upgrading an existing installation.  Basically they dump the pre-cooked image as it is to the hard disk and write a boot loader.  There are no packages in the live images.  The advantage is that it is much faster than upgrading packages one by one in a Anaconda upgrade.  You can do an "upgrade" if you have a separate /home by just not choosing to format it during the installation
